Even if China paid the tariffs, how did you expect it to work? The manufacturers would just eat the entire fee and give you stuff for under cost?

Yes, because we're supposed to believe that China having a surplus of manufactured goods constitutes a liability, and our need for manufactured goods constitutes a strength. So with our good strong healthy mentally competent leader, China will soon be paying us to take their products. Noted experts like Ron Vara have explained this in depth. </s>
